Critical reception[edit]

-"expecting originally how charismatic he was that Leo would be an available party member in the game." I'd reword since this is a confusingly worded run-on.

Fixed, reworded things to be smoother

-I'd reword "The staff of Futabanet Manga Plus meanwhile cited him as one of the franchise's poignant examples of self-sacrifice in a retrospective," to The staff of Futabanet Manga Plus, in a retrospective, meanwhile cited him as one of the franchise's poignant examples of self-sacrifice," for clarity

Fixed

-"and how much it left a lasting impact on players who regretted his death." I'd cut "who regretted his death" since the point already comes across well enough without it.

Fixed

-"as a last light of hope against him." I'd change him to Kefka for clarity.

Fixed

-"more melancholy" I'd change to "more melancholic" but this is mostly personal preference

Fixed

-"Kawachi upon controlling the character and seeing his portrait admitted they were shocked, moreso than by his death, and stated "a man's charm isn't always in his face!"" This whole bit to me really doesn't feel like it's saying much. Definitely feels more like a yoinked minor comment than anything too constructive.

I tried rewording this a bit...it's kinda a visceral reaction he goes into a bit on in the article, and the only reaction we have to his appearance outside of retonauts (and honestly a rarity overall given I don't think any of the other characters got that same response). Without such the 1Up bit feels a little out of place to boot.

Overall[edit]

-Looks good, ping me once the above are addressed. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 20:15, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Pokelego999: I tried to address everything. Lemme know if there's anything else to fix! Sorry for the wait.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 15:18, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Should be good. Happy to pass. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 18:02, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
